Hello Arnold
My Great Grandfather Petrus Dobranski was from Hermakivka, Borschiv I believe also known as Germakowka. Petrus married Katherine Hladysh from Krakowiec, Jaworow. They had 10 children. They immigrated to Canada about 1902/03.
Their 3rd child a daughter Julianna Dobranski (1886) married Leon Toporowski (1875). Leon and Julianna had 9 children. Leon and Julianna had a homestead right nexr door to her parents Petrus and Katherine Dobranski. The two homesteads were in Hadasville, Whitemouth. Manitoba.
As a child, we would visit Manitoba and all our relatives just about every summer.
Both of my parents were from the same area, my father Mike was born on the Hadasville homestead and my mother came from Elma (Janow), Manitoba just down the road.
I remember going to the Toporowski farm for visits, there was always laughter, eat and drink. Great Aunt Julianna was a heart watming individual. I also remember several of their children, my father's cousins.
It seems to me, that your Stan Toporowski and family must be of the same clan.
Happy Canada Day
Patricia
